Detailed text:
Processing makes computer programming for graphics more accessible for people with little previous experience, especially for those who are visually aware. There is a large and lively community using the programme including students, artists, musicians, architects, designers and researchers. Processing is an open source programming language and development platform. It can be downloaded for free at the Processing website. By simplifying the syntax and compilation process of the programming language Java whilst simultaneously extending its visual capabilities, Processing makes computer programming more accessible for people with little previous experience, especially those "visually minded".
